Do you need a box spring?

You do require a foundation of some type. I built a frame with 2 by 4's and put 2 by 4 legs under it and plywood on top to support the mattress. We store stuff under the bed in Rubbermaid containers. A frame and two twin sized foundations would work, but I prefer the platform because of the storage space.

Optional. You can put it on a platform bed frame or buy one of the bed frame just for these mattresses. I have done both and the beds are equally comfortable.

I used a platform bed frame that has multiple slats and no need for a box spring. It is firm and very comfortable, perfect for that platform bed.

No but it does make the bed nicer to sit on for dressing or putting on shoes just be sure to have a flat surface

No you don't, I just converted my old bed frame(wooden) into a platform bed. It just needs to be flat and solid. I think they sell some already made on here I think they are called mattress foundations that fit in your bed frame. Hope this helps and would be happy to answer anything else if I can.

You don't have to use a box spring. You can use a platform of some sort to support it, or you can buy a foundation for it as I did for another mattress. There's a few ways to set it up so that it's right for you.

My frame did not come with a box spring. It doesn't have much support, just enough to hold the mattress. In short yes.

No. This bedframe does not require a box spring. I purchased one of these bed frames for a cabin. I was so pleased with it I purchased five more. I was concerned that it would not be very solid, but these bed frames are rock solid. In my opinion, they are a very good product at a very good price.

Yes a box spring is needed. The foundation are slats which would be placed too far apart for just a mattress. Also the bed would be super low with no box spring

You don't need a box spring if you have a platform bed. If it's for a regular frame bed you need box spring.

No box spring required, and it would be too tall with one. The mattress rests mostly on the solid cabinets and partially on slats that span the void between the drawers and the headboard.

Our bed does not require a box spring. Our mattress fits directly on the slats of the bed. It works great!

Yes you need a box spring, I'm not sure about the weight capacity, that would also depend on your mattresses

You do not need a box spring. i simply went to Lowes and had them cut a few pieces of wood and used that instead. It worked well as a platform bed which was not too high for my 5 year old. Hope that helps.

No, you don't need a traditional box spring with this. Ours is on a wooden frame, and we have another one on a frame we purchased from Amazon that is metal, with wooden cross supports. Wasn't expensive and everyone who has used our guest room said they had a comfortable sleeping experience. Hope this helps.

Yes you will need a box spring it only comes with the slats to place the box spring and mattress on.

No box spring needed. I had to throw mine away. But the extra storage was worth it.

There is no bed frame with this headboard you must provide your own. Yes, you will need a box spring.

No, you don't have to but it is not needed. I have never used a box spring with mine.

Definitely does not need a box spring. In fact you should not use a box spring. The bed is very thick. Place it on a frame and it will end up higher than the old frame/box spring/mattress combo. And I like the higher profile.
